Celebrity Crushes

Pages

After a good, long run, we have decided to close our forums in an effort to refocus attention to other sections of the site. Fortunately for you all, we're living in a time where discussion of a favorite topic now has a lot of homes. So we encourage you all to bring your ravenous love for discussion to Chuck's official Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr and Instagram. And, as always, you can still post comments on all News updates. Thank you for your loyalty and passion over the years. These changes will happen June 1.

I have two very legit celebrity crushes. The first one is Grace Potter. And, I'm being 100% serious when I say if I ever get the chance to meet her, I will use all my Aussie charm to get her to fall for me. Not even joking a little bit. Like, when I come over to the states, I'm going to find her and chat her up and, with enough luck, go on a date with her.

The other one is Lisa (on the left) from The Veronicas (A L.A-based Australian band lead by two identical twin sisters). She's stunning. And, when I'm in L.A I'm going to play on her homesickness and date the shit out of her.

Just try to not fall in love with either of those two ladies.

So, which celebrity do you want to date and why haven't you tried it on them yet? After all, they're just ordinary people with extraordinary jobs.

Man, I really don't have any. The closest thing I have to a celebrity crush is on Chuck P. himself. He seems like he would be an awesome friend and really cool to hang out with. Instead of humping him, I really want to buy him a beer and ask him "How's life?" and have him call me to cheer him up when shit isn't going his way.

Party of Five started my permanent celebrity crush on Jennifer Love Hewitt. The teenage me has informed the adult me's taste. Also, Lacey Chabert from Party of Five was right-up-my-alley too. Both of them are more or less my age too.

You're really into that guy? No wonder you don't find me attarctive, man. It's because I'm NOT uglier than a hat full of assholes. Shit. You can do better than him. You're a good-looking chap.

Pick again. I demand it.

You're being kinda rude, Matt. He's got a right to be attracted to whoever he pleases, and if that happens to be a guy that you, a hetero male, find 'uglier than a hat full of assholes,' that's fine. But don't be a jerk about it.

I love how Kate just rocks in with this massive list. So good. But ladies, given the chance, would you hit on these fellas?

And, Chris, jump down off that high-horse, mate. I was mucking about. And, surely you guys know my style by now. I obviously wasn't trying to offend Justin, and, you know, if he was offended, I'm sure he would've told me to stop being a cunt. He doesn't need you to tell me.

And, yes, it was a compliment, however backhanded it may have been. That guy isn't very attractive. Not in the typical sense. But, yes, if Justin digs him, that's perfectly fine. I'm not judging him. At all. So, maybe, you could stop being a jerk to me?

I wouldnt dream of making passes at any of these dudes. But then that is not my style with anyone. If anything , if I'm attracted to someone, I ignore them. COunter-intuitive, I know. Juvenile too I expect. But that's just how I do.

Also, who is Benoit Magimel? I thought it was Eminem at first. But then I looked closer and realised he's a much better looking specimen.

James McAvoy. I don't really get it. You know, most girls I know think he's outstandingly gorgeous. But, I don't see it. He has a really nice jawline. But then he's got that weird fluffy red facial hair. And his chin sucks and it looks like he's constantly pouting or something.

I find it interesting that you feel compelled to dissect the aesthetics of certain people....as I am sure you are well aware ,attraction is based on a wide variety of things. What is attractive to some will be repellant to others. For instance dudes who wear leather vests just make me roll my eyes... but that's just me. There is no value judgement implied there. Just a subjective preference. He seems intelligent and I am attracted to intelligent-seeming individuals.

I would however only hit on Beigbeder and Bucurenci, and I have, actually. The others are too famous/handsome/amazing to even try. Wanted to go to the afterparty of his reading, when Beigbeder came to town to release a new book, but I was 17 so I thought that might be a problem. I've had a crush on Bucurenci since I was 13, and we met constantly throughout the years, for an interview, the release of the Romanian translation of Trainspotting, mentorship events and various others. It is one of my goals in life to get naughty with him just once, but he's moving to California for an MBA and probably won't come back.

Well, yeah, I'm dissecting the aesthetics because this is purely aesthetically based. We don't actually know any of these people. And, maybe if we did that attraction would fall away in an instant. It's happened to be a million times. Thought someone was physically attractive but then spoken to them and not even found that attractive in them any longer due to their personality. More than anything, personality is the thing I'm most attracted to in people.

I was merely asking what you girl find attractive, physically, about McAvoy, because, like I said, it seems to be a consensus among many women that he is attractive to the eyes.

McAvoy has incredible eyes, a nice mouth - great jawline like you said. There is a certain level of intensity to his look that I find very attractive. Also the accent. Plus, he's a great actor and like Kate says, he seems like a pretty intelligent guy. Liked him since I first saw him, in Shameless.

I think Clive Owen is perhaps the best looking man on the planet but realistically (even if he wasn't married and famous), 46 is too old for me.

I like James Franco though.

It's very neat that you know those two. But I don't think you should be a quitter!
